[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ASSMO:
Just got my Black and White Ultra Hybrid. Amazing quality, I also have a Silver Neo Hybrid which has one benefit over the ultra, which is the lip around the phone. The lip on the ultra is very small. But it definitely makes up for it with the sexy button covers. They feel awesome to press. I am also waiting on my Ultra Capsule. So when I get that one I will put up some pictures of all of em.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] HWOW:
JUST ORDER MINE! this looks awesome and i'm not into cases.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CaspaTheGhost:
Not into them at all but I'm actually using this one, it really doesn't bulk it that much, looks proper smart and I feel that little but easier that if she has an accident the main impact points should be covered.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] meeporox:
I have a spare brand new Neo Hybrid in Satin Silver. Let me know if you are interested in buying. I am in the UK so there is no need for you to wait 10-14 days to get it from ebay seller. :cool:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Madmanden:
What price are you asking? And would you consider shipping to Denmark? :-)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] meeporox:
Will have a look at the price when i get home later. Not sure if you can get it significantly sooner than ebay without paying extra postage. Will let you know later
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] HWOW:

Just got my ultra case and it is top notch quality.

For the CDMA Owners out there

More reviews never hurt :D

Droid Life just did a review of both the Neo Hybrid and Ultra Capsule for the Gnex. However, they're showcasing it with Verizon's variant and for those of you wondering whether to get it or not this may help out.

Droid Life Review
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xl DIGITAL lx:
They did a really great review on that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] acura_speed:
They act like this case fits the lte perfectly, there isn't a great view of the lip at the top of the screen. To my knowledge, the silicone doesn't completely cover that edge. Does anyone know if this has changed?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 4Pr3mier:
As you all should know, the SGP Neo Hybrid case back tends to stretch and sag over time.

I am using mine with the extended 2000 mah battery so it might have had an effect.

This was only about 3 weeks, so it's not too bad.

I will leave it as is for now, but someday I will either exchange it through SGP, or cut out the back, void warranty and make it a bumper case.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CaspaTheGhost:
Yeah, mine looks like that but I switch between phones so its off and on twice a day.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheAlp:
here is mine after about 3 weeks:

(don't mind the metal ring around the lens)

no sagging there.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 4Pr3mier:
Jealous...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheKaz:
photojojo lenses?

---------- Post added at 12:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:05 PM ----------

Just wondering if the sagging is dependent on how often the case is taken off and put back on..?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] r0ckstar323:
Here is my white case. I have a LTE Gnex with extended battery. It fit, but not as well as I would have liked so I cut the back. I used a carbon fiber Skinomi techskin to cover the battery door and camera.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 4Pr3mier:
:thumbup:!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Highfive o/:
Ordered this after good reviews here, received it on Wednesday.

Best case i have ever had, feels great in the hand and looks good.

Went for the black one :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheAlp:
No I got it from ebay.

I don't think I have taken mine off more than once since I put it on and I don't use an extended battery so that might help.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheKaz:
Meant the metal ring....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheAlp:
yeah I got the lens to put on that from Ebay :P
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MerkurMan:
Just a quick question to the Neo Hybrid owners. Received mine today and I really like it, but I noticed on the inside of the silicone skin, it says "EO HYBRID copyright SGP...." Does everyone's case have that typo, or did I get a knockoff case? :/

Fits awesome and looks beautiful, although I'm not too pleased with how touchy the volume buttons are with the 2Kmah extended battery installed on my GSM. Might try it with the battery cover off, but then I'd be worried about dust getting inside the phone. We'll see.

Thanks! :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mwinggg:
it could be a typo, someone in a taiwanese mobile forums mentioned that he got the same typo on a authentic sgp neo hybrid

u should see a serial number on a piece of paper inside the retail package that u can check the authenticity on sgp website
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MerkurMan:
I just checked SGP's website and it appears that the typo is official, as it shows on their product photos.

I didn't get the little slip of paper inside the package, but the packaging itself looks official. I'll just assume the best and use the case. Other than the slickness of the glossy plastic, I love the feel in the hand and the looks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PSUBALL10:
I have had the SGP Ultra Capsule on my LTE for about a week. The fit is ok, but doesnt fit the top of the phone perfect like others have stated.

I am looking to sell this case, please let me know if anyone is interested. It is the white and will come in the original package.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xazniboix:
How long did it take for you guys to receive your case? I ordered the Neo Hybrid case on Monday but I haven't received any tracking number or e-mail saying that it was shipped. I checked my order history on the website and it's empty. I did receive an e-mail saying that my payment was received though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tommy_FIN:
My neo hybrid came with two screenprotectors. What brand are they? Sgp oleophobic?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] that1techguy:
Could you post a link to which one you got I'm looking for one but they all have the silver looking ring and would rather have the black one. Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mvtm:
I was about to get this case. But having 3 TPU cases + another 3 that i ordered. It's too much. I'll wait until my new cruzerlight cases arrive... the choose my fave 3. Sell the other 3 in my country $$$ and see if to buy this same neo hybrid! I'm liking the white!, plus it's a change from TPU.

So far i spent $36 on my 6 cases.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MilkPudding:
You should get Ultra Hybrid if you have the GSM phone. I think it just looks and feel a lot better than Neo Hybrid
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nascasho:
I sent them an email requesting they make one for the LTE versions, I don't want a semi-good fit, I want a perfect fit. Not sure why they haven't done it to begin with. They make me a case, I send them money, everyone is happy.

One of the only cases I want... and BAD.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] T-Keith:
Everyone should petition them for an lte case. I asked them to and they suggested the neo hybrid. There is a review on their site saying it works on the lte phone.

Still the ultra hybrid looks better. Maybe if they get enough emails, they might consider making another case. Sadly we might be out of luck thanks to Samsung's choice to make two different phone's with the same name.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mvtm:
How's this?? can someone post comparison pics? I'm not quite sure about the materials on the Ultra Hybrid. I'm just color based, as i really don't dig the Ultra Hybrid color combos... at least on the advertised photos?

Who else agree with Milk??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mwinggg:
i have soul black ultra hybrid, material is nice, but the problem is the button is extremely easy to be pressed accidentally i ended up giving up using it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] T-Keith:
Took a chance and ordered the neo hybrid. Fit is definitely not great, but I will give it a few days. I'm not sure I could go without the extended battery, I've had it in since new.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fullmetal509:
I'm assuming your using an LTE Gnex?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tommy_FIN:
Nobody knows?

i know it sucks but i had to do this. :p

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mvtm:
I decided to go with Milk advice and went for the ultra hybrid in Purple/Yellow because i'm a girl. Colors selection IMHO is limited, this was the better looking of the 4. As soon as i get it i may post DSLR pics.

Hope i'm not alone with this pone,SGP seems top make the highest qual GN cases so far i've seen.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lippstuh:
I caved and bought the Neo Hybrid for my LTE w/ Extended battery.

I got it to fit 95% perfect by removing the back. Then taking only the silicon and stretching it carefully over the phone then putting the plastic trim around it. yes it fits.

Problems w/ the LTE + Extended Battery - back cover:

- The top sometimes slips and doesn't fully cover the lip. I just move it back hoping in time it will fix itself

- The case presses the volume down button when you apply pressure the the left side of the case. I think I can fix that with a dremel easily
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vikramdhani:
I ordered the soul black case from amazon here in US and i am hoping it will fit my nexus gsm with 2000 extended battery

A video review done by AppReviewa.

I just don't like bulky cases but I have an issue with the thin snap-on cases that leave the top and bottom of my phone exposed. I mean I still wish to have a full coverage if I'm throwing on a case or I will just leave my phone naked.

Ultra Hybrid is the ONLY thin case that fulfills all my requirements and I have no complaints at all. I got the blue one but ya, I do wish there were more colors available too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] T-Keith:
I also have the lte extended battery, I notice the pull back at the top, but buttons work well for me. I do notice a little pull back on the sides and a bit of "creaking" occasionally. I'm hoping they go away over time. The ultra hybrid looks like it's more like a one piece which I would like, but doesn't look like it would work with the lte version.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lippstuh:
did you remove your back cover? If you take the hard shell apart from the silicon then apply the silicon first getting it perfect THEN apply the hard shell. you should be able to get it to look perfect.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] napes22:
I recently received the Soul Black case for the Verizon LTE version with an extended battery. It doesn't fit as everyone else explained. The volume buttons are always activated if the case is stretched to fit.

I have found that the case fits perfectly when the back door is removed, however I'm a little worried that dust will get into the casing near the camera (since it is completely exposed) if you take off the back cover.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lippstuh:
There is only ONE way to fix the volume problem on the LTE devices. The volume rocker is about 3mm lower on the LTE vs the GSM version. The only solution to this problem is to take sand paper or a dremel and make it a little longer by shaving the bottom end of the volume rocker opening.

yes you must remove the back cover in order for this to fit. the other solution is to cut the silicon as seen in a different thread
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vikramdhani:
I am guessing this case works better with GSM 2000 Extended battery and not the Verizon LTE extended battery, owner should make them for those phones as well
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] giorgosgeo4:
The sgp neo hybrid does have the same problem like in galaxy s2? I mean after one or two mothes getting suggy cause of the temprature? I had the neo hybrid in my s2 and after one and a half month the case lost the strech and became suggy. Now i have the nexus and i'm thinking if it's going to be the same. Do you think the ultra hybrid maybe is better?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mwinggg:
ultra hybrid doesnt have stretch problem since it is made of hard plastic and tpu
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] deadpixell:
Has anyone here used the neo hybrid and SGP's screen protector with no issues? I'm wanting to order both but only if they case doesn't mess up the screen protector..

edit: looks like one person has had success awesome :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] loveact:
damn. exactly like what i've experienced

i have the neo hybrid and after one month usage,there's a gap in the silicon case because of the heat.

now i have to use double tape to repair the gap :(

$27 and in 1 month it's already made me upset :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] giorgosgeo4:
Yeap exactly the same problem pal. After one and a half month my neo hybrid because of the hot temprature became so ugly and suggy at the back place where the camera is in my s2. Now i bought the case mate tough for my nexus and i can say that i'm very satisfied with the protection it gives me but its little thick so i'm thinking to buy the ultra hubrid but how is gonna be the protection with that case?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
What's your experience with this screen protector? Peeling? How about the coverage?

Thanks for your support
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Staggers:
The silicon in my neo hybrid tore around the power button within a month. Now I see that SPIGEN SGP no longer even sells that model. I hope those with the Ultra Hybrid have better luck.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mwinggg:
they r still selling it

dunno y they dont improve the material since they have been making these long ago
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] purplemarauder:
saggy too

Ditto for the sagging for me.

Big shame as it's a lovely looking case - and not cheap! :mad:

PM
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] T-Keith:
No sagging or button problems here yet. But the misfitting on the top still bothers me. I tried taking off the back cover but it didn't help at all.

We need to petition them for a lte compatible ultra hybrid.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mvtm:
Good to know i ordered the ultra hybrid instead of the neo.

My case arrives next week, hope by next weekend get some pictures.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Enhanced:
Count me in for the sagging too. Like others have said, the area around the camera has become less snug and now pops up a bit to show a gap between the rubber material and the phone. I've been trying to apply and reapply the case but to no avail. I've tried using double sided tape as well but it just seems to pop back up over time.

It's fairly frustrating considering the cost of the case and the fact that it looks so good. Not sure if this issue is a deal breaker but I'm definitely disappointed. This will be the last Neo Hybrid case I ever get for my phones unless they use a different material in the future.

Now I'm looking at the Ultra Hybrid and not too thrilled about how it looks. Also hopes that it doesn't mess up the edge of my screen protector. :mad:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mvtm:
Here's my stuff!!!

How it looks?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stevo1006:
Just got my Neo hybrid today so far so good, hopefully wont sag to much as use a case mate tough when at work for extra protection
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chad_Petree:
Ohhh I really love how the ultra hybrid looks :eek:, im going to get it but i-m having a hard time deciding between the white one and the black, ive seen some pictures of both cases in this post, but can someone post some more ? :o decisions, decisions

XO Skins with Neo Hybrid Case

I have the soul black Neo Hybrid case, but I'm having difficulty with my XO skin screen protector. I have the xo skin applied perfectly but the hybrid case is so snug, that it pushes up on the xo skin along the corners.

I've purchased my 2nd xo skin and even after waiting a long excruciating 72 hours for it to settle, I've found that the case is still causing it to peel.

After burning 30 or so dollars on xo skins, I've come to realize that it's not the best for my case. Does anyone with our case have a screen protector alternative that they can recommend?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chad_Petree:
I haven't tried myself but I've read that the sgp oleophobic screen protector is smaller than the nexus screen so you'll able to use it with the ultra hybrid :)

That's the combination I'm getting :)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rylake:
You can try best skins ever who have a "case optimized" version of their skin, which fits small on the screen naked, but with a case is mm's away from the bumper. Plus, they are a reasonable price, compared to the others.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jayrod1980:
No such problem with the ghost armor protectors but they have more orange peel. Its not like zagg but seems it has vertical lines when you look down it from an angle catching the light. No rubbery feel after a week. I used to universally recommend them but lately I've been getting pinpoint dots from micro bubbles that show as tiny round flecks in the light. Most of them disappear after a couple weeks but not all unfortunately.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] i n f a m o u s:
Im really debating if i should purchase any one of these cases. I really like design and protection the case has to offer but Im worried about my volume and power buttons wearing out over time with the added pressure from the silicone.

After using the case, has anybody noticed their power or volume button become softer?

I've already found several cases with volume and power button cut outs but I prefer the style of the SPG line of cases.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dongtuson:
I like the Mercury case (made ​​in Korea), it must hold hands and colorful
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CaptnSpaulding:
The yellow one looks SO GOOD! Really thinking about getting one, but £20 is a bit steep if I decide I don't like it or face problems with sagging or stiff buttons.

But it's so sexy!!!! :D

I want an ultra hybrid but with silver, like this one

I don't like glossy plastic :(

Leaving on Monday for Hawaii :D . Semana Santa
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mvtm:
I have my new purple/yellow ultra hybrid. Too late to take pictures so i'll just post them in the day.

I have to be honest! I think i like my A2 Cruzerlite cases the best!!! I'm kinda let down by the ultra hybrid. What i enjoy the most is the side buttons, they feel better than actually clicking the naked device.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] T-Keith:
Any of you ultra hybrid owners have the cdma version?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mvtm:
About an hour using this!! I'm loving it!

I'm loving a different texture than TPU, also it is really thin. I have to see this in the daylight... looks more pro than the Androids on the back, plus it doesn't pick up fingerprints.

It has a rubbery hard plastic texture on the back so it doesn't slip and a matte plastic texture on the sides. Plus the buttons have a solid raised glossy texture. Fit is perfect with the GSM version. Completely precise. With the GSM extended 2000mah battery is a tiny bit less than perfect on the sides but it should be no compromise as the case is a delight. It is a simple piece of plastic, really lightweight and not the most handsome looking combo, but the purple/yellow adds a bit of a funky vibe to the Gnex and it looks great when paired with the phone. Thin looking!, less bulky as i would imagine... Not sure how thin is the Ringke compared to this, but i am satisfied with the thinness/profile of the phone.

I'm also loving my extended GSM batt. The phone feels more balanced and a joy to hold. Has a more secured grip and weight distribution just feels better. Weight with the standard and extended difference it's not perceivable.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dnlsmy:
Love the Infinity White Neo Hybrid on my GSM Chic White Galaxy Nexus. Best case for the price, slim an protected.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chad_Petree:

Neo Hybrid on Verizon

I know that some people have posted a few replies previously in this thread but I thought I'd reiterate this question.

The Neo Hybrid case fits the Verison CDMA version almost perfectly. There is a little tweaking youll have to do to make all the rockers etc function correctly but it fits and its WORTH IT! Case is awesome. Really does preserve the slim shape of the phone and feels great. Let me just state again that this is with the STANDARD battery. It does not fit with the extended.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] T-Keith:
I have to disagree a little. While fit is overall pretty good it is far from perfect on my cdma gnex with extended battery. The sides are stretched very tight, and the top has a gap. For me the standard battery is the same way, very little difference and the same gap at the top.

I do like the look of the case, but it is hard to get on right, and still a little slippery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chad_Petree:
Edited, sorry
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chad_Petree:
Carbon fiber back looks so slick where did you get it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Vcolassi:
Yea that combo is sick! So clean, you have good taste!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MerkurMan:
Well, I inadvertently tested out the protection capabilities of my Neo Hybrid today. Fumbled the phone while setting it down on my toolbox, and ended up basically throwing it at the concrete floor from about four feet in the air. The case has sustained some damage, as you can see in the picture, but the phone is still perfect! I was surprised, as the impact was fairly severe.

When I pulled off the Otterbox Defender and replaced it with the Neo Hybrid, I was almost expecting to regret that decision later on. But, thanks to SGP, I don't! I'm sure that in time, the small cracks in the plastic will propagate and it will break, but it sacrificed itself for the phone's sake, and for that I'm thankful.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CaspaTheGhost:
Nice, just what I want to see. Had mine for a good while now and its great, only issue is it sticks up around the camera.

Knowing it works makes me forget that.

I received my SGP Ultra Capsule case today and I'm really liking it. There is one small area where the case seems to be a tiny bit asymmetrical (near the top right) but I'm nitpicking. My Photojojo lens mount ring fits perfectly in the camera cut out. I'll try to get some pics and chime in again when I receive my GSM extended battery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] r0ckstar323:
Thanks, Sorry have been through here in a few days so I didn't know someone posted about it. i n f a m o u s is right its White Neo Hybrid case with a skinomi techskin on the battery cover.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] neotekz:
can someone who has the neo hybrid measure the thickness at the top and bottom for me? im using the tpu bumper case on ebay that just fits my car dock so a thicker case may not fit it but i really like the idea of a two layer bumper case, just too bad sgp doesnt make one for the GN like they do for the S2 but r0ckstar323's cut doesnt look bad at all.

for those who like that carbon fiber look you can just buy 3m di-noc tape, its exactly the same as those carbon fiber skins but cheaper if you just buy a square foot and cut it yourself. i did this with my atrix and it looked great and was pretty easy to do.
